None of mine have done it, but it must be better than listening to a small child learning to play the violin which is the only option around here

There is also this lady
here Beety. I have to be honest and say I like her a lot more than Sir James Galway
She does a lot of educational work and wrote the brilliant Choose the right instrument for your child

I used to get flutewise magazine beetroot!

How long are the courses? I think in general that sort of thing is great, and he'll quickly get to know people. Go for it I would say!

We still do! Don't read it though it goes out in a pile with Peter Warlock Society Newsletter, Historic Brass Association Journal, Strad etc (you get the picture).
Beety, I suspect you might be not unlike the inspirational Atarah in RL...

That was meant nicely beety
She has helped countless children on the way to learning an instrument and she comes across as an unstuffy, imaginative teacher
I remembered you and the Shakespeare when googling her, that's why I said that.
You are not an elderly caftan-toting flautist...

Beetroot · 09/02/2006 13:57

phew, Marina,

Actually i thought, 'I wish'!!

I don't think it has left her destitute either mind
I know you are rethinking at the mo.
